Having lived in Shanghai, London, New York and Boston, I found urban life is filled with various traps and pretentiousness which make people get used to telling lies and hiding their real hearts. I like watching people's faces, trying to read their mind through their facial expressions. I found that faces can reflect people's inner heart and spiritual world even when they are concealing themselves. Inspired by my findings, I created " The Faces". During the composition, I painted the most memorable face of a particular resident in that city every day.
